Plasma TVs
We at Best TV know there is plenty of speculation regarding to the technology of plasma TVs, some true and some false. Here are a few of the most common mistakes about plasmas:
1) Plasma TVs Do Not Last Long
This is an extremely common plasma TV myth. When comparing plasma to LCD technology, they are pretty much dead even. Plasmas currently have an average lifespan of around 60,000 hours (give or take a few thousand). If you were to watch 4 hours of TV a day, the display should theoretically last over 40 years, on a medium contrast setting.
TIP: when your TV is shipped to the store or to you, it is usually set at a very high contrast level (for the showroom). So when you open your baby up and take it out, be sure to navigate to the menu and turn down the contrast ratio.
2) Plasmas Are Expensive
In some cases, such as the largest, highest resolution top-end models. Fortunately, technology has allowed the price of plasmas to dramatically lower in the past 10 years. Plasma TVs have comparable costs to LCDs, and as the screen size increases the price is actually sometimes lower than an LCD with the same screen size.
3) Plasma TVs Give Off Harmful Radiation
Best TV laughs at this claim, this is about as far off as you can get. The only trace of detectable radiation can be found up to an inch away from the screen. CRTs (the most common household TV) give off a significantly higher amount of radiation. The pixels are individually illuminated, so the radiation is kept within the specific pixel. Plasma and CRTs should pose no threat to your health – they comply with the FDA guidelines for radiation emission.
4) The Higher Resolution, the Better the Picture
Save your money. The only reason you would want to spend extra money on a TV with 1080p resolution (top-end) would be to watch Blu Ray movies or play Blu Ray games. Watching regular TV on a 1080p TV looks no different than a 720p or even a 420p (TV is generally broadcast in 420). Also, most movies are made for 720p resolution or lower.
5) Plasma TVs Leak Gas
Modern Plasma TVs in no way, shape, or form leak gas, or need to be refilled. I don’t know how many times I’ve heard that in my life. The TV’s pixels are permanently enclosed in sealed glass cells, and are filled with a harmless gas mixture. There is no way for the gas to escape, meaning it cannot leak out and does not need to be refilled by any means.
